Description: This paper aims to analyze public health actions against smallpox in Jalisco during the 19th and 20th centuries. To achieve this, the Jalisco Historical Archive was consulted, as well as government reports and interviews were conducted with subjects who participated in the process of eradicating the disease. It is proposed that the measures implemented throughout the study period underwent modifications and did not follow linear progress, however, it should be noted that some of them persisted and managed to become institutionalized, such was the case of vaccination.
Este trabajo busca analizar las acciones de salud pública implementadas en el estado de Jalisco contra la viruela durante los siglos XIX y XX. Para tal efecto, se consultó documentación del Archivo Histórico de Jalisco, informes de gobierno y se realizaron entrevistas a sujetos que participaron en el proceso de erradicación de la enfermedad. Se plantea que las medidas puestas en práctica a lo largo del periodo de estudio experimentaron modificaciones y no siguieron un progreso lineal, sin embargo, destaca que algunas de ellas persistieron y lograron institucionalizarse tal fue el caso de la vacunación.
